Chamberlain have chosen four styles of surface decoration for their Broadway vase, Heritage Garden, Imperial Imari, Black, and King George III.

Heritage Garden design takes it influence from the historical Chinese, Worcestershire china and chinoiserie, these elements have been crafted into a contemporary design featuring beautiful floral sprays that weave together, interspersed with delicate vignettes of flowers and leaves.
